David Akiyoshi Chardonnay Lodi Sur Lie Aged 2016 1.5L Magnum
About the wine
The biggest bottle of our biggest Chardonnay
- David’s Chard racked up more positive reviews than any other we ever funded. So we let him double down and make a special edition of his prestigious Reserve Chard in a 1.5 Liter Magnum bottle.
- You empower David to treat this special vineyard in undiscovered wine country as if it were the most famous, expensive vineyard in Chablis - he gets to do extensive barrel aging "sur lie" and other winemaking techniques that give the wine its incredible depth and richness.
- The 29,000+ Angels who have rated David's Chardonnays will snap up every single Magnum before you know it so act fast!
Best before
Life is too short to wait or drink bad wine... enjoy it now!
Serving advice
Serve about 20 minutes out of the fridge, so it is not so bone-chilling cold. Better to enjoy the fruit and aromas that way.
Food match
Gulf shrimp and cheesy grits
Contains sulphites
